My Life

Twelve-year-old Laleeyah lives on the Crow Creek Native American reservation in South Dakota, USA. There aren't many opportunities for people on the reservation, and life can be tough, but Laleeyah loves to learn about the traditions of her ancestors and takes pride in keeping them alive. Once a year there is the Pow Wow: a big, colourful, celebration where the whole Crow Creek tribe comes together to compete and celebrate with traditional dancing, music and dress.
